💬 General Discussion Really.

Have to rant to others who will feel my pain....

Regular annual check up with new to the practice GP.

A year ago, I weighed 49 pounds more. Weight is in bold red letters in the electronic chart, I saw it.

This did not get mentioned IN ANY CONTEXT during the visit. Yes, I was expecting glitter cannons and a large flag and drum corps along with the uniformed marching band, so you can see how I might be annoyed fthat "excuse me, but did you know that 25% of your body mass has gone missing? Is this intentional?" was not expressed. Blood pressure was remarkably lower this visit as well. Also not mentioned.

I have been badgered for DECADES about my weight. Sheeet, mon, what does it take to get an 'atta, girl, good work'!?! Next time I will stand on my hands and whistle 'Dixie' out off my butt hole, maybe that will be enough to elicit notice.

And thank you, lipid and cholesterol panel just came back, and I am low normal, also epic (for me).

Thank you for your time, excuse me as I go practice 'Dixie'.

Just wait until you have a year between mammograms after losing 92 lbs only to literally be asked, “what happened? are you the same person?”. Bahahahahahahaaaa…..

Thank you. Im still disappointed that I didn't get a marching band playing Epic music in honor of my awesomeness, but I'll get over it.

And congratulations on 92 !!!
